ULTIMATE GUIDE TO BURGLAR TRAITS

LEGENDARY TRAITS

These are gained through legendary books for each class, the books drop randomly in areas lvl 39+, Trollshaws, Misty Mountains and Angmar.
They give an accomplishment to achieve in your class tab in accomplishments (shift + L) to talk to someone related to your class.

We get the wonderous Bilbo Baggins!!??

Note 1: All these npc's are located in Rivendell.
Note 2: The trait maybe completed at level 39, but the first Legendary Trait Slot does not open until level 41.

Once you've talked to them they give you a quest to find 8 pages that are missing from the books, that is recorded in your class accomplishments.

You must find the Book of Knives and Knee Breaker’s Manual and accept the quest with Bilbo Baggins before the book pages drop.
